36″ x 36″ textured mixed media on 1.5″ gallery wrap canvas with the painting continuing around the edges

With such depressing news these days, I felt compelled to paint something that would make us feel much better. And, it worked on me, so I hope it does the same for you. I felt so much happier after painting this larger than life bluebonnet and Indian Paintbrush scene. Working with palette knife and a lot of texture, reveling in the process of flinging and pouring paint to create a joyful, kinetic kaleidoscope, and playing with a cheerful palette of reds, yellows and blues, I feel like this one really lifts one’s spirits and has a touch of whimsy to it.

The Texas wildflowers were gorgeous and thick this year. The conditions were perfect for a super bloom explosion of color! Leaving the bluebonnets large and prominent in the foreground, rows and rows of these blue beauties lift your spirits and lead you back to the shelter of the grand old oaks. Planted together, their branches were even entangled into a heart shape, and I had to capture their steadfastness. Including bright pops of color all around the compostion all adds to the joy and energy of the moment.
